  • Episode 56: "A Dingo's Got My Baby!" - The Story of Lindy Chamberlain
    Jul 24 2024

    A camping trip in one of the most beautiful spots in Australia ends in tragedy when a young family's infant daughter goes missing. Lindy Chamberlain's screams pierced the night when she discovered her 9 week old missing from their family tent that a wild dog had just emerged from.

    Unfortunately, Lindy's account of what happened on that fateful evening were too bizarre for investigators to believe, and Lindy was charged with the murder of her beautiful daughter, resulting in one of the largest legal and medial events Australia has ever seen. Sources:

Great new pod!

I listened to the three new episodes and the hosts are fun and tell the stories well! I listened on my car ride to/from work and made the ride go quickly!
